Could you knit another one which co-ordinates and perhaps picks up an element of the design? If it were in a coordinating or matching colour, it might appear that they are a pair, without exactly matching?
I seem to recall having seen something like that on Etsy ...
Otherwise, I am with Marydoll a lavender bag would be nice. You could hang it with your winter coat.??
How can I stop people from 'helping' ?


or would the bits fall out? 
and so I cannot knit the other one. Must I just unpick all that hard work?
